Corte Bella consistently earns praise for its wide, generous fairways and challenging layout with sloped greens and varied pin placements. Exceptionally friendly staff and smooth pace of play make every round a welcoming experience.

The course at Corte Bella Golf Club was done in a desert style but avoids the target greens and forced carries that are at some desert courses in the area. It has a classic layout on a beautiful terrain of ficus, Italian cypress, and oleander, creating a scenic ambiance. The designer, Greg Nash, kept traditions of classical golf architecture in mind and made a course that champions the strategic player. Both the immaculately manicured greens and the wide fairways are well protected by bunkers on this course, making accuracy on the approach shot a priority. Water hazards come into play on three holes at Corte Bella Golf Club.

Another good round

Course conditions were good. Greens were a little bit bumpy which is very odd for this place. Usually the greens are very smooth. Pace was a bit slow. A couple of groups ahead of us were having issues and slowing down the pace. Carts have ice chests and plenty of ice. No GPS so bring your own.

Course was in good shape. Greens just recovered from being punched.

Course is very fair. Open fairways with small elevation changes.

Course Conditions

Course was in good shape for just getting their greens plugged & sanded. Ball rolled decent and held on approach shots. Fairways & Tees where in good shape, some spots where dried out but it was a nice course. Ill play here again.

Greens were not bad after getting punched, soft with good roll. Tees & Fairways were good for time of year. Bunkers could use some work but not bad. Ill play here again.

Greens are terrible .

Greens are terrible after being plugged. It was actually better the previous week with less time to come back. Fairways are pretty bad as well. Lots of areas with no grass

Kinda on your own here

There were 4 or 5 cart clerks but nobody to even offer vold drinks on the course, yet no signs or statements to let you know before you head out. But at the turn, there was a large gathering blocking the drive to the back nine. They rudely told our group to go around before two guys finally moved carts so we could get by. The track was tough but fair. But apparently if you're not a member or regular you're not really welcomed. That's an odd approach for a course so far out in BFE.
